The government recognises the importance of homework from an early age and has recommended that schools provide organised homework toraise standards of achievement.

Whilst ourschool has always provided homework, we see it as important that parents are aware of the homework expectation of each yeargroup and the amount of homework set during the course of a week.

Every class has the expectation of daily reading that will be recorded in reading records and for years 5&6 theirhomework diary.

Each child in year5 & 6 will have a homework diary which you should sign weekly. The diary will have details of the work expected and a note of any letters that should have gone home. It alsoallows for any comments you may wish tomake.

The chart below gives specific information on homework for each yeargroup.
